We can finally exhale our collective breaths. If only Macklemore would weigh in.

She sounds like a president to me.

Will Sister Souljah be her running mate then?

holy cow that jacket. those lapels!

@3 She lies like a president and illegally orders eavesdropping on diplomats like a president and vilifies whistleblowers like a president, and bombs innocent civilians like a president.

She's a conservative counting on conservatives for support.
7
Surprised she tackled this issue but good on her.

Underneath all that black piping, is that jacket ... khaki?

Good for her, but I'm really tired of the empty rhetoric of this whole generation. The greatest disappointment of Obama's time in the office is the realization that ANY President - black, female, gay, Tibetan, martian - is necessarily a reactionary.

@1, The frustrating thing about the Obama presidency is his political cowardice in not confronting the republicans when they do unethical and illegal crap and engage in intimidation, e.g Sigelmann, forcing Van Jones out of his administration.

She is a "we" when she talks about white people. It's not exclusionary, just factual. I'm sure she also says "we" when referring to groups that include both her and black people, such as "Americans". So why should that suck?

Tepid.
Measured.
Ambivalent.

Sounded like a direct slap at certain members of the Ferguson police department there for a minute. Glad to hear it from her although also rather surprised.

Police militarization. Good angle by Hillary. Something that worries the left and conservatives. She's smart.

So everyone has been saying something, but when is someone going to do something? And what, indeed, can be done? One can't just wave a magic wand and have racism go away (especially since it's such a dandy tool for keeping poor and middle-class whites from thinking about issues of class and economic justice)

But here's a thought: what if we had a Marshall Plan to get more black cops on the streets, and more black attorneys in the justice system? If you can't "fix" they system, you co-opt it.

@16: great thought.

@16 - I like it.

Entergy? What what?

I'm sure the good people of Ferguson are relieved that her highness Hillary Clinton has finally spoken on their situation. They will most likely cease their protests for a fortnight in favor of one bad motherfucking block party to celebrate the fact that Hillary motherfucking Clinton took the time to make a statement about Ferguson.

@20 ? What are you talking about? Are you sober?

Please wait...
